      I have to apologize to Joe Poole and everyone at FergusonPoole Marine. They ARE NOT the ones who burned me on the RDE harness. But in fact gave me great service when I did need something.

        Thanks Richard! I think you’re probably right about trying to replace just the pin. Those pins are designed to stay in place; not wanting to push in or pull out without great effort (and probably special tools). My time and effort could be better spent on many other things. There’s a guy on Ebay that will sell me a complete like-new harness for $103. This is probably the smart way to go, but I’m liking the Allied Electronics lead you gave me. Being an Electrical Engineer, a bit of soldering and heatshrinking is a no brainer.

        Thanks also to Wannabe for the good find! While I love supporting our fellow entrepreneurs, I also believe in shopping around. I’m not sure how to interpret “NOS” though ( http://www.acronymfinder.com/NOS.html ). I’m a real newbie.

        Regarding the positive or negative ground on this motor, any advise? I can figure it out, but the advise might help if the (+) and (-) wire colors don’t match up well with one of 4 schematics that I’ve dug up.

        You can remove the pin, just from experience I can tell you that you have to undo ALL the pins to replace one…. might as well just make a new one…
